US Prosecutor names her 10 most violent games

Now we have US Prosecutor Kym Worthy condemning violent video games. She even lists down her 10 most violent games, specifying what she found disturbing about them, adding that parents should avoid buying them, and keep kids from playing them.

The games she cited, however, are rated M by the ESRB, and the appropriate marketing and advisory have been put into effect. Here they are:

Blitz the League II - Steroid and drug use is encouraged and wins are celebrated with hookers in a hotel room.

Dead Space - Players must destroy scary creatures; if the creature catches you, it will dismantle your limbs.

Fallout 3 - Survivors in a post-nuclear world must kill whatever is in their way including giant insects, raiders and super mutants.

Far Cry 2 - Blowing off people's heads is a regular occurrence.

Gears of War 2 - This game's main weapon is the Lancer assault rifle, which combines a rifle with a chain saw.

Left 4 Dead - The player is in a city where a new rabies virus is quickly spreading.

Legendary - A thief breaks into a New York museum and breaks into Pandora's box, unleashing all the world's evil beasts who destroy all humans.

Resistance 2 - The Chimera alien race kills civilians by the thousands.

Saint's Row 2 - The player can choose to beat up strippers, slit rival gang members' throats or shoot cops.

Silent Hill:Homecoming- It's a spoiler, you can just visit the source if you're really curious. Prosecutor Worthy cites violent video games | Freep.com | Detroit Free Press

Worthy also cites the brutal slaying of Daniel Sorensen, who was stabbed to death and beheaded by two other teens, JP Orlewicz and Alexander Letkemann - both are now serving time. "The investigation revealed that the youths would often play violent video games," Worthy said. "I believe that certain video games are connected to the proliferation of violent crimes being committed by youthful offenders such as Orlewicz and Letkemann."
